Ok I'll go with the stock intake for now but should I use the spread bore carb that's already on it or a edelbrock 600cfm that I have?
I threw on an Edelbrock 1406 last week and it was running cherry til I blew a rod earlier today. Actually, could any of you recommend a solid cam replacement?

4-5psi MAX anything more and you'll just flood the carb.

depending on what you want 12-300-4 is highly regarded if you want something for torque.
